The equation to calculate the time-weighted nitrogen oxides emission limitation for each 30-day period, in pounds per million British thermal units, for gas-fired boilers or process heaters firing gaseous fuel containing more than 50% hydrogen by volume.

Where:

     EL2 =   time-weighted NOX emission limitation for each 30-day period, in lb/MMBtu of heat input;

     EL1 =   appropriate NOX emission specification for gas-fired boilers from paragraph (1)(A) -
                 (F) of this subsection or gas-fired process heaters from paragraph (2)(A) and (B) of
                 this section, in lb/MMBtu of heat input;

     1.25 =   factor used as a multiplier times the appropriate emission limitation when firing
                 gaseous fuel that contains more than 50% hydrogen by volume, over an eight-hour
                 period;

     T1 =  time in hours when firing gaseous fuel that contains more than 50% hydrogen by
               volume, over an eight-hour period during each 30-day period.  The time period when
               hydrogen rich fuel is combusted must, at a minimum, be a consecutive eight-hour
               period to be used in the determination of T1; and

     T2 =   time in hours when firing gaseous fuel or hydrogen rich fuel (for less than eight
               consecutive hours) during each 30-day period.
